It's 8 or 9 for me, anything than reinforces the angelic nature.

Hello there,

After we’ve shared the Angel of Death for the first time, many people didn’t liked the design of the mechanical scythe, opting for the more traditional one. We were thinking about it and came up with 11 various designs! Now we’re presenting all of them to you and we’re eager to hear which one of them you would like as an alternative?




all of them except 2 & 3

although if pushed 7, 8, 6 & 9 are my favorites in that order

My concern is that I have no idea how the miniatures are scaled in comparison with other miniatures. The only measurements they have included width measurements of the bases, not the actual measurement of height on the miniatures.

3 pounds for a digital rulebook is sweet! The packages seem kind of high, though - can you add on miniatures to the 3-pound pledge?

I'm currently only in at £3. Surely worth it for the rules and painting tutorials alone. Not sure if I like enough of a faction to justify one yet. There are a few here and there I think are special but others I don't like the style of. Some of the larger models are out of my league but I'm sure there will be collectors after them. Big fan of the Angel of Death though and the burserker is "venom-like" in the best of ways. Looking coward to seeing more artwork. Hope I can find enough cash down the sofa for some. (Would definitely opt for these over WWX)

Someone beat you to it by quite a bit but glad to see you checking in over here even while the campaign is running! I hope to see the total keep going up, this has been a good start.

I'm not trying to be a jerk or be rude... but what is with the comparison photo with a tape measure across instead of measuring heights.



There was another Kickstarter that did something similar and they ended up getting ripped on fairly bad by the community. I can understand having both width and height to give an example of the wingspan or something but comparison photos really mean nothing without a height indication. Mainly because you can tell the picture is taken at a up angle which can skew with height comparisons.

I'm only interested in Ish. Once she comes out, I'll see about geting her - depends greatly on the postage costs.

Hello there,

Today we present to you a Demon Brute from the brutal caste society, the most honorable and fearsome warriors that emerged from the Portals.
He’s covered in the armor made of bones and skulls of the beasts with which this warrior fought during the conquest of one of the former worlds – they are as hard as steel, providing unmatched defence as well as being a sign of fighting prowess – only a formidable warrior could have defeated such beasts and be allowed to make an armor with the trophies.

The giant club is made with two skulls, becoming the fearsome weapon that may easily shatter bone and steel alike.

The Demon Brute is standing in a taunting pose, ready to challenge the foe he believe to be worthy of becoming his opponent.










What do you think about this beastly warrior? Visit our Kickstarer page!

Best demon I've seen in a long time! I get a doom vibe from. I'm off to check your KS page out.

I've backed this for now but the big (deal breaker) for me is, will there be alternative sculpts for the pilgrims, snipers and cultists. I don't really like multiple sculpts for skirmish games....

Yes, we will be putting body options as a stretch goal ; )

Very true the PanO Orc in that picture is a lot bigger than the space marine also pictured in real life.

Please can we have measurements of minis heights please

I saw this on my facebook today, I really like the look of the models, but without proper measurements I wouldn't be prepared to buy in. Give height measurements, and you'd no doubt get more interest.

Also, as an aside, there are a few grammar/spelling/typing mistakes in the KS text, and that--to me, at least--looks a little sloppy.

The irony is strong here, no?

They're trying to sell a game, in English. My level of Polish is irrelevant to that. Why get defensive over a little criticism? The only reason I said anything was because they had mistakes, easily fixed ones, and may not have been aware.

looks like the angel is approx 4 times the height of a space marine? or measure the wing span then measure that against the height of the angel in photoshop?

many of the fans probably don't give a ratsass about scale anyway or they wouldn't be buying GW stuff either

We were asked for a scale shot with the height measurements, so there are three photos with Angel of Death, Pilgrim and scale shot of the Edge models near the GW Space Marine and Infinity model.

@Mymearan - Yes. The Pilgrim model is 37mm high if standing straight (~35mm from toes to the eyes)

Thanks for the measurements.

Good luck with the kickstarter, your humans are too big to fit in my collection so I won't be partaking but I might grab a daemon or two at retail in the future.

Also I'd sugest removing the part about this range being 28mm scale from your kickstarters front page, unless your pilgrim is supposed to be an 7 foot giant he ain't 28mm scale

Yeah, you should probably be upfront about it being 35mm, or there will be some unhappy people.

Thank you for the measurements and comparison photos. I'll be staying in this for awhile as I actually have a couple games that play in 35mm range that I think these can mingle with. The other demon/larger models I can probably work something else out with as well.

It is unfortunate they aren't in a 28mm - 32mm height range though. It would be beneficial to include more heights for the other models, although they are larger than the average miniature, by knowing the different heights it will let people decide what they can use, mix and match with existing miniatures as well.

So do any of the sets come with the printed rule book, or just a PDF?

No wargames these days, more DM/Painting.

I paint things occasionally. Some things you may even like!
